4 Maintenance

An annual visual inspection is recommended. Check for visual defects that may affect proper
function.
Maintenance must be carried out by competent personnel.
Do not carry out maintenance on this device yourself. Instead, return it to a Blatchford center for
maintenance. If the device is still under warranty, we will loan you another knee unit while we
carry out maintenance.
Report any changes in performance of this device to the practitioner. Changes in performance
may include:
• Increase or decrease in knee stiffness
• Instability
• Reduced knee support (free movement)
• Any unusual noise*
* Due to the nature of the hydraulics there may be some slight air noise from the cylinder during the
first few steps. This is not detrimental to the function of the unit and should dissipate quickly.
If symptoms persist, please consult your practitioner.

Storage and Handling

When storing for prolonged periods place the device vertically with trunnion uppermost.
Alternatively and in addition, air management may be assisted by cycling the knee control
several times with the stance resistance switched off (refer to Section 7.3).
Use product packaging supplied.
Cleaning
Use a damp cloth and mild soap to clean the outside surfaces.
DO NOT use aggressive cleansers.
